    Not Billy Buick's finest hour - I bet Hayley is kicking herself. TBH Dream Ahead was never in it, didn't look like a sprinter today

    Quite impressive fromMoonligh Cloud there, Wootton Bassett ran well considering his form this season.

    I don't think Moonlight Cloud is all that either - this sprinting division is incredibly poor - Marchand D'OR class back in his day but nowhere near as good as he once was and still running in to places

    Good old West Ham, I have seen more pace in a Southwell seller than in their team

    Pretty impressive by Maybe. Slashed for the 1000Gns but I think she might be a better bet for the Oaks. Any views?

    Looks to be a well developed two year old, to be honest I would rather be with the Godolphin horse that we saw yesterday. Maybe was impressive again but I do think she may be a bit Rainbow View like

    I have 14-1 about her - she is now as short as 4-1 so well happy with that :) she looks very good, travels well and quickens up nicely. Doesn't do too much when in front but enough today. Discourse will not win the guineas I would want her odds that she will even see the track as a 3yo - lots of ability but can't be trusting Godolphin. Took White Moonstone out to Dubai didn't they <laugh>

    That is the problem with 2 year old form. So many impressive 2yos are made fav for the Gns on the strength of 2yo form, when so much of it is determined by how developed they are, and then don't perform as expected (or even run) in the classics. Would never back ante post before seeing them run as 3yos.
